Does anyone have any links for reverse engineering Spotify DRM? I didn’t necessarily need it for myself, have plenty of music, and it would be a pretty inefficient means of piracy vs. BitTorrent or like yt-dlp, but I’m curious how it works.

It always seems to me like the analog gap is particularly gaping with audio, and I wonder how far down to the metal it’s protected.

What does it mean in terms of ethics when a song is not on Spotify and is not considered a song (is just a generic video) through YouTube Music? It seems to happen a lot to video game OSTs, especially Touhou music.
